I saw it in the window and I *HAD* to have it"
Complete with curtain rods.
Which reminds me, it's time to start looking at Christmas tree skirts and see if there are any good ones to turn into JilliSkirts.

Spike's Bitches 38: Well, This Is Just...Neat.
[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

GF and I got the cutest tree skirt this year! We do a woodlands theme tree and found a patchwork skirt with corduroy and plaids and stuff with appliques (sp?) of a deer, a moose, and another animal. It is so perfect for our tree. Unfortunately, we don't even know if we'll put the tree up this year due to the remodel mess.

I don't want Annabel to look shabby and neglected,
So just how spiffy were those shepherds, anyway? They lived in a pre-velcro, pre-zipper and probably pre-button era, and they hung around with sheep.
In the time and place I grew up in, all women stayed home, but there were still a lot of costumes and decorations based largely on glue and glitter. Whatever flaws you see in her costuming will be much obvious to you than to anyone else. As far as I'm concerned, anyone who reads to their child; keeps the child fed, safe and warm; supports her education; and teaches her not to yell in the library or race with shopping carts is a good parent. The rest is gravy.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

Considering that my mother used to tell me the kid-friendler parts of her crime fiction books, most of my costumes involved bath towels or plastic noses, but one year she and her friend paid somebody at school to make my friend and me Halloween costumes. My poor kid would probably end up wearing a sign that said "Shepherd". I think you can beat that, Susan.

Yup I had a bad mom too.

I only mention the shopping carts because of a near miss at Costco.

Ah. Well, safety *is* the most important part of any racing. We need to teach our kids how to safely race shopping carts. And to stay in school. Because drugs are bad, m'kay.
I think my brain just shorted out into an afterschool special.

We did not have much of a Cleaver legacy in my family. I'm quite seriously awed by women like that(until you get to Martha's level...she makes me uncomfortable, but in a very tasteful way) but I've always been aware that they have...an extra lobe in their brains or something.
